Ethring

Ethring was a major crossing point of the river Ringló, along the main road from Erech to Pelargir. Aragorn and the Oathbreakers crossed the river here during the War of the Ring.

The name Ethring perhaps comes from ath meaning "across" (cf. athrad "ford, crossing"). Ring translates to "cold" (cf. Ringló river, to which it probably refers).

2014: The Lord of the Rings Online:

Ethring is the only settlement in the Ringló Vale. During the War of the Ring, it is ruled by Lord Borhador, whose seat is in the Crossing-Hall. Due to Borhador's old age, his son Dervorin led the soldiers of the Vale to Minas Tirith in his stead, while his other son Arvaethor stayed behind and assisted in protecting the Vale.
